In particular, Rebrov noted that he was satisfied with the result achieved by his players, while pointing out the personnel shortage in the country's main team.
We are unable to play with an optimal squad. Five attacking players are injured - key players who cannot participate. Many injuries. But the players who came did a lot for the victory. Very important three points that we deserved.
He also promised that the Ukrainian national team would fight for the maximum result in the two final matches of the group stage.
"We must be in optimal shape to compete with the French team. We always play to win, so in matches of this level, anything is possible, we will fight," Rebrov summarized.
